Flight Log - 2015-02-23 - Ken E. Coyote's Monsters University Art Cup Rocket (Scratch Build)

Custom Cup Rocket similar to Up Cup design.  Uses a plastic cup and 24mm motor mount.  Tumble recovery.  I liked the Up Cup a lot, but wanted something more sturdy and able to take 24mm motors. 

Flight Date: 2015-02-23
Rocket Name: Monsters University Art Cup Rocket (Scratch Build)
Flyer's Name: Ken E. Coyote
Motors: C11-3
Expected Altitude: 500.00 Feet
Wind Speed: 10.00 mph
Actual Altitude: 600.00 Feet

I evened out the epoxy on the cup a bit, but still left a bit more on one side to keep some "swirl".  Tried C11-3 this time and it went up well with a slight spiral.  Cup recovered 30ft from pad (gusty day with 5-15mph winds).
